At the September 2, 2012 Leonard Cohen Old Ideas World Tour concert in Helsinki, Finland, Leonard Cohen publicly thanked Jarkko Arjatsalo, creator of LeonardCohenFiles, declaring that because of his efforts ...

My work was kept alive for all these years

Maarten Massa's video of this event can now be viewed at http://youtu.be/wPHscnyyxok

Note: I also posted this in the Helsinki Concert thread. The information seems important enough to warrant this duplication, lest someone miss it.

Bravo Jarkko!

It is absolutely fitting that Leonard should pay tribute to your endeavours
for not only is this website an incredible resource but also a great source
of enlightenment.

Thank you.

What a wonderful gesture of Leonard to recognize and thank Jarkko for all he has done. Leonard is just such a wonderful and humble Man and he is so appreciative of all his fans like no other Entertainer. I am sure Jarkko will cherish this forever. We all thank you for all you do.

It is us, Jarkko, who should thank you. There is not one day, where I can't find something new, enlightening, comforting, or long missed clips. And not to forget, thank you for all the friends I found here

for the nice atmosphere in your Forum, for keeping politics aside, for ticket infos and presale ... and last
not least for the files.

Thanks very well deserved indeed, but it must have been lovely for Jarkko to hear it from the man himself!
Cheers to all concerned, and of course thank you Marrten for videoing it.
